"I moved to the tundra..." sweetie, it's the beginning of November? You don't know tundra yet. It's coming. In maybe 2 months.

If she's in "staff seats" where's the other staff? And I find it hard to believe she spends the whole game talking with a guy that's sitting behind her; that's just not that easy to do in arena seating.

There are always plenty of people (mostly women) who don't wear team colors at games, they dress up instead. There were always at least a few I could see from our seats. She wouldn't stick out *that* much in black.

UGH. The anthem(s) are played between when the players warm up and they line up for the puck drop--he wouldn't be able to be gesturing to her by the boards and have teammates calling for him to come line up; he'd already be lined up with them on the ice for the anthem. (Don't want to assume her fictional team *also* always plays the Canadian anthem, but it should)

FFS, the heroine didn't know Buffalo was on the Erie Canal until she started visiting Erie Coffee Roasters? (Presumably not the horrible coffee place she visited in chapter 1 where they refused to make her coffee the way she wanted it and everyone was wearing knit beanies in August). Honey, you are living in ERIE COUNTY. By LAKE ERIE. You skipped NYS history in 4th grade?

OK, what the heck. She's moved to Buffalo in the middle of AUGUST and is complaining that in a coffee shop, she's the only person in a pencil skirt and blouse compared to everyone else in FLANNEL SHIRTS AND KNIT BEANIES? Uh, no. This is the part of New York where people are wearing shorts and flip flops in March, because we get the odd 50-degree day after weeks of temps around and below freezing

I'm going to keep going because I want to read the next book and need to know what's going on overall, but JFC Kenzie deserves SO MUCH BETTER than this a-hole. It's criminal that my poor baby romance superfan gets this guy for her own big romance.

Rhys coming in with the save! Who IS this guy??? <3

"Grunty McGruntface"
LOL.

FFS, Les Miserables is NOT about the French Revolution, and sure, maybe Jean Valjean might know enough about an event that happened 43 years earlier to help an English schoolboy with his studies (but would he, really? He's fictional--does he have memories outside the book?) but surely the Scarlet Pimpernel would be a better choice, since he lived through the events himself?

had to switch to reading instead of listening because the unending uninteresting details was really getting to me...way too much time spent detailing every extravagant inch of the new team's digs, and these two MCs are constantly in their heads, obsessing on the awesomeness of each other--yet somehow I'm not really feeling much chemistry?

Too many words we don't need! :/

I'm sorry--the cops grab him minutes after his girlfriend is abducted and they're not interrogating the heck out of him right now? My dudes, if you honestly think he took her and then quick ran back to the site of the abduction, why aren't you questioning him RIGHT NOW about where he took her?

Not that anything these cops did up until now was remotely realistic, but still.

Even worse, you're not going to ask her about it? Have an adult conversation with your girlfriend, who is maybe being targeted by another SK now, about your suspicions? Nope, we're just going to push her away, convinced she's a cheater because 1 (maybe 2) psychopaths supposedly "punished cheaters" by stalking and killing them. Great plan, dude. SKs are notorious for having great insight into their victim's lives.

OMFG. I was appalled when the MMC had the FMC relive THAT TIME SHE WAS ALMOST UNALIVED BY A SERIAL KILLER so he could See it and maybe notice something she didn't (WTF, dude? What kind of boyfriend makes his SO relive trauma like that? If she didn't notice, you're not going to notice either--you're seeing her memories!) but now he's decided she's a cheater because a cop you JUST MET says that the SK targeted cheaters

OK, now she's just being silly. Why on earth does she assume the worst of Oliver? She literally fell asleep last night while he was talking to her, and nothing about his conduct before that would lead anyone to think he was just discarding her as she's now assuming.

I trust everything's going to end up well here; it's just this was a delight until this point and now she's just being deliberately obtuse. Grrrr.

Well. It got dumber.

Oh my god, this book is so dumb. I can't believe there is still another 2.5 hours of this to go.
